War Related: Spectators/New people should be unable to see traps/teslas

Part of me agrees to this, but I don't see how spying would help anyways. I mean, it would be one thing if you could control the troops of where you want them to go, similar to Boom Beach, but they would just go into the traps anyways. In wars, when I use dragons, it wouldn't matter of where the traps would be, because the dragons go for practically any defense or tower they see, even if a seeking air mine is right near it. This being said, even if I knew where the traps are, it has no difference either way.

Not everybody attacks with dragons. Imagine how useful those traps are for a hog rider attack.. or for a lavaloonion where you could disarm a trap if it's on the side with a single balloon. Knowing the traps is an advantage they take and if it wouldn't be helpful, they wouldn't do it anymore.

Fwiw, we don't spy. But I don't think that spying is an actual problem in the game. Can it affect the outcome of a war? Sure, but that is part of the game. Coc has always been a social game and spying is part of that. Some people might complain, but when it gets taken away, the spies will complain. Who is right? I dunno, but I think that trying to sneak someone behind enemy lines to gain an advantage should not necessarily be frowned upon in a game where the idea is to steal all of your neighbors loot...

This would be great, 2nd option is the best

Thanks for sharing your opinion! Everybody can have a different opinion but it's great when they explain the reason for declining too!

My suggestion relates to the Spectator rank (if you can call it like that) from the Wars. The spectator rank or title appears when a player is not participating in his own clan's war but is only looking. This can either happen if the player is new to the clan or if the player has opted out of war.

The idea #1: The spectators from the war should be UNABLE to see the traps/teslas of their own clan mates.
Reason: To stop the spying in other clans.

Advantages: People will be unable to spy in other clans and as a result less fake reports will be made on the opposing clans.
Disadvantages: Their own clan mates which are not new to the clan will be unable to see the traps/teslas of their clan mates BUT they can ask one who is participating to show them.

The idea #2: The players marked under the title New should be UNABLE to see the traps/teslas of their own clan mates.
Reason: The same, to stop the spying in other clans.

Advantages: People will be unable to spy in other clans and as a result less fake reports will be made on the opposing clans.
Disadvantages: Very few! Usually the players that are new but didn't join the clan to spy DON'T need to check their clan mates bases.


Why I think this idea can be implemented quite easily: Because the spectators are already prohibited from donating troops to the clan war map, so if SuperCell could implement this prohibition I think they can also include one for traps/teslas.

This general idea is so thoroughly and widely agreed, why do we have to keep talking about it?

Surely supercell could acknowledge that they have read this?
